San Jose, Calif.  Fairchild Semiconductor has introduced a Power-SPM module that increases efficiency in power supplies to meet ENERGY STAR requirements. The Power-SPM FPP06R001 is a highly integrated synchronous rectification module that increases power efficiency and space efficiency in power supply designs.

The module's high efficiency helps power supply designs meet next generation ENERGY STAR requirements, which specify that power supplies must achieve 85 percent or greater efficiency at normal output load conditions.

The FPP06R001 module is housed in a compact EPM15 package that addresses the low-profile requirements of high-end, ultra-slim SMPS designs. The module uses lead-free (Pb-free) terminals and has been characterized for moisture sensitivity in accordance with the Pb-free reflow requirements of the joint IPC/JEDEC standard J-STD-020. All of
Fairchild's products are designed to meet the requirements of the European Union's Restriction on the use of certain hazardous substances (RoHS) directive.
